CrowdStrike and Intel expand partnership to secure next-generation AI PCs

March 25, 2026 — CrowdStrike announced an expanded collaboration with Intel to enhance cybersecurity for AI-powered personal computers, as artificial intelligence workloads increasingly shift to endpoint devices.

The partnership integrates CrowdStrike’s Falcon platform with Intel’s AI hardware technologies, enabling real-time threat detection, data protection, and improved visibility across AI-driven workflows directly on devices.

The companies said the solution addresses new security risks created by AI PCs, where sensitive data is processed locally, expanding the attack surface. The combined platform leverages hardware-level telemetry and AI-driven threat intelligence to detect and stop advanced attacks more quickly.

CrowdStrike noted that the collaboration aims to close the gap between where AI operates and where security is applied, helping enterprises securely adopt AI-powered computing at scale.

CrowdStrike announced new Falcon platform capabilities positioning the endpoint as the central control point for AI security, addressing risks from increasingly autonomous AI agents.

The updates introduce real-time monitoring, detection, and governance of AI agent behavior across endpoints, SaaS, browsers, and cloud environments, including features such as runtime protection, shadow AI discovery, and prompt-level security controls.

The move reflects growing enterprise demand for securing AI systems, as agents gain access to sensitive data and execute actions autonomously, requiring continuous visibility and control across the entire digital ecosystem.

CrowdStrike announced that its Falcon for XIoT solution has achieved FedRAMP High Authorization, enabling it to secure federal operational technology (OT) and connected infrastructure at the highest U.S. government security standard.

The authorization extends CrowdStrike’s Falcon platform in GovCloud to protect mission-critical systems such as power grids, transportation networks, and medical devices. These environments are typically difficult to secure due to unmanaged assets, proprietary protocols, and the need to avoid operational disruption.

Falcon for XIoT provides capabilities including automated asset discovery, AI-driven risk prioritization, and real-time threat detection and response. The solution is designed to unify security across IT and operational systems, helping federal agencies reduce vulnerabilities and defend critical infrastructure against increasingly sophisticated cyber threats.

CrowdStrike Holdings Inc. and Nebius Partner to Secure AI Cloud Infrastructure

CrowdStrike Holdings Inc. announced a global partnership with Nebius to integrate its Falcon cybersecurity platform into Nebius’s AI cloud environment, delivering unified security for high-performance AI workloads.

The collaboration enables organizations to extend existing security policies and threat detection capabilities across AI infrastructure, providing real-time visibility and protection for both training and inference environments. Nebius’s platform, built on NVIDIA-based AI infrastructure, is designed for scalable, distributed AI workloads with built-in isolation and encryption.

The partnership reflects growing demand for enterprise-grade cybersecurity in AI-driven environments, as companies scale AI adoption while maintaining robust security and compliance frameworks.

CrowdStrike announced a strategic partnership with Perplexity AI to integrate the CrowdStrike Falcon platform into the Comet Enterprise AI browser.

The collaboration will embed the Falcon cybersecurity platform directly into the Comet Enterprise environment, providing enterprises with real-time threat detection, governance controls and data protection within AI-driven browsing workflows. The integration will allow organizations to monitor AI interactions, prevent unauthorized data sharing and detect web-based threats during AI-assisted research and decision-making processes.

CrowdStrike said the partnership responds to rising AI-related cybersecurity risks. According to its 2026 Global Threat Report, AI-enabled cyberattacks increased 89 percent year over year, while 82 percent of detected attacks in 2025 involved malware-free techniques designed to bypass traditional defenses.

The integration builds on CrowdStrike’s earlier acquisition of Seraphic, which enhanced browser-layer runtime protection within the Falcon platform. By embedding security controls directly in the browser environment, enterprises will gain visibility into sensitive data usage and apply security policies to AI-driven workflows without interrupting employee productivity.

The Falcon platform will be available as an opt-in feature for Comet Enterprise customers, enabling organizations to extend existing security frameworks into AI-native work environments as businesses increasingly adopt AI tools for everyday operations.

CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. announced the general availability of FalconID, extending its Falcon platform with phishing-resistant, zero-friction multi-factor authentication (MFA) designed to counter AI-accelerated identity attacks.

FalconID embeds risk-aware authentication directly into the Falcon sensor and Falcon for Mobile app, using real-time signals across identity, endpoint, device and behavioral telemetry to determine when access is safe. When risk is low, authentication occurs transparently; when risk changes, access controls automatically adapt. The solution leverages FIDO2-based biometric, device-bound verification, eliminating passwords, push notifications and one-time codes while requiring verified physical proximity between devices.

The launch strengthens CrowdStrike’s Falcon Next-Gen Identity Security portfolio, which spans identity threat detection and response (ITDR), privileged access, SaaS identity security and protection of human, non-human and AI agent identities. With prior acquisitions of SGNL and Seraphic, the platform integrates continuous access evaluation and browser-based protection, aiming to replace static, point-in-time controls with continuous, risk-based authorization.

CrowdStrike warns AI is accelerating cyberattacks in 2026 Global Threat Report

CrowdStrike released its 2026 Global Threat Report, highlighting how artificial intelligence is reshaping the threat landscape and compressing response times for defenders. The company said AI-enabled adversaries increased operations by 89% year over year, with the average eCrime breakout time falling to 29 minutes in 2025. The fastest observed breakout occurred in just 27 seconds.

The report found that attackers are exploiting generative AI tools by injecting malicious prompts at more than 90 organizations and targeting AI development platforms to deploy ransomware and establish persistence. Nation-state and eCrime groups are increasingly leveraging AI for reconnaissance, credential theft and evasion. China-linked activity rose 38%, while DPRK-linked incidents increased more than 130%, including a reported $1.46 billion cryptocurrency theft.

CrowdStrike also noted a 42% rate of vulnerabilities exploited before public disclosure and a 37% rise in cloud-focused intrusions, underscoring the growing speed and sophistication of AI-driven attacks.
